  [NETLINK]: Infinite recursion in netlink.

The packet driver is assuming (reasonably) that the (undocumented)
request.errors is an errno.  But it is in fact some mysterious bitfield.  When
things go wrong we return weird positive numbers to the VFS as pointers and it
goes oops.

Thanks to William Heimbigner for reporting and diagnosis.

(It doesn't oops, but this driver still doesn't work for William)

Reply to NETLINK_FIB_LOOKUP messages were misrouted back to kernel,
which resulted in infinite recursion and stack overflow.

The bug is present in all kernel versions since the feature appeared.

The patch also makes some minimal cleanup:

1. Return something consistent (-ENOENT) when fib table is missing
2. Do not crash when queue is empty (does not happen, but yet)
3. Put result of lookup

There's a really rare and obscure bug in CFQ, that causes a crash in
cfq_dispatch_insert() due to rq == NULL.  One example of the resulting
oops is seen here:

	http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/4/15/41

Neil correctly diagnosed the situation for how this can happen: if two
concurrent requests with the exact same sector number (due to direct IO
or aliasing between MD and the raw device access), the alias handling
will add the request to the sortlist, but next_rq remains NULL.

Read the more complete analysis at:

	http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/4/25/57

This looks like it requires md to trigger, even though it should
potentially be possible to due with O_DIRECT (at least if you edit the
kernel and doctor some of the unplug calls).

The fix is to move the ->next_rq update to when we add a request to the
rbtree. Then we remove the possibility for a request to exist in the
rbtree code, but not have ->next_rq correctly updated.

Broken by 4a1728a2 which switched the
return semantics of read_mii_word() but didn't fix usage of
read_mii_word() to conform to the new semantics.

Setting carrier to off based on the NO_CARRIER flag is also incorrect as
that flag only triggers on TX failure and therefore isn't correct when
no frames are being transmitted.  Since there is already a 2*HZ MII
carrier check going on, defer to that.

Add a TRUST_LINK_STATUS feature flag for adapters where the LINK_STATUS
flag is actually correct, and use that rather than the NO_CARRIER flag.

	The sis900 driver appears to have a bug in which the receive routine
passes the skbuff holding the received frame to the network stack before
refilling the buffer in the rx ring.  If a new skbuff cannot be allocated, the
driver simply leaves a hole in the rx ring, which causes the driver to stop
receiving frames and become non-recoverable without an rmmod/insmod according to
reporters.  This patch reverses that order, attempting to allocate a replacement
buffer first, and receiving the new frame only if one can be allocated.  If no
skbuff can be allocated, the current skbuf in the rx ring is recycled, dropping
the current frame, but keeping the NIC operational.

We don't use a dynamic pointer for pldev->dev.platform_data, so it seems
that the correct way to proceed if platform_device_add(pldev) fails is
to explicitly set the pldev->dev.platform_data pointer to NULL, before
calling the platform_device_put(pldev), or it will be kfree'ed by
platform_device_release().

The listxattr() and getxattr() operations are only protected by a read
lock.  As a result, if either of these operations run in parallel, a race
condition exists where the xattr_root will end up being cached twice, which
results in the leaking of a reference and a BUG() on umount.

This patch refactors get_xa_root(), __get_xa_root(), and create_xa_root(),
into one get_xa_root() function that takes the appropriate locking around
the entire critical section.

v9fs_insert uses v9fs_fid_lookup (which also locks the fid) to get the
primary fid associated with the dentry and destroys the v9fs_fid struct
after removing the file.  If another process called v9fs_fid_lookup on the
same dentry, it may wait undefinitely for the fid's lock (as the struct is
freed).

This patch changes v9fs_remove to use a cloned fid, so the primary fid is

This is one way to solve the problem without re-arranging structure members
is to pack the structure.  The patch adds an __attribute__((aligned(8))) to
the taskstats structure members so that 32 bit applications using taskstats
can work with a 64 bit kernel.

Using __attribute__((packed)) would break the 64 bit alignment of members.

The fix was tested on x86_64. After the fix, we got

There was schedule() missing in the TIOCMIWAIT ioctl.  Solve it by moving
the code to the wait_event_interruptible.

I only have CONFIG_NUMA=y for build testing: surprised when trying a memhog
to see lots of other processes killed with "No available memory
(MPOL_BIND)".  memhog is killed correctly once we initialize nodemask in
constrained_alloc().

I encountered the following kernel panic.  The cause of this problem was
NULL pointer access in check_modem_status() in 8250.c.  I confirmed this
problem is fixed by the attached patch, but I don't know this is the
correct fix.

Fix the possible NULL pointer access in check_modem_status() in 8250.c.  The
check_modem_status() would access 'info' member of uart_port structure, but it
is not initialized before uart_open() is called.  The check_modem_status() can
be called through /proc/tty/driver/serial before uart_open() is called.
